I am a 25 years old Brazilian man that think traveling is a great way of learning about local ways of living. I am infinitely curious about the world around me and I would like to learn new skills and make memories with friendly, open-minded people from all sorts of different cultures. I'm a simple person loving to enjoy life, I like music, nature, hiking, philosophy, arts, and rewarding encounters.

After two years of working with the politics of my country, I decided to take a sabbatical year to improve my self-knowledge and be with different cultures. It will be a period of self-discovery that will help me to restructure my professional life. And I am very excited about this idea.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that share the moments is one of the best things in life. Couchsurfing shows me as a possibility to meet interesting people and share a part of life with them. Another of a best thing is traveling, but when i'm travelling i love to feel as a local guy and Couchsurfing can do it.
